I'm stoked! Fellow Tmobile peeps, our 3G coverage rolls out on October 1st! I've also heard that the iPhone 3G may work with tmobiles 3G despite the different frequencies because of the phones built in chip, I will find a link and post it shortly.

I hate to break the news to you but regardless of what is said, it will not work. Here are the reasons. Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think I am wrong. iPhone 3G has the following 3G frequencies. 850/1900/2100. What you are thinking is the following. AWS is on 1700/2100. So there is 2100 is common between both and yay, it will work. The reality is this. AWS is using 1700 for upload and 2100 for download. You need both ways to make it work. My suggestion is this: if you are on T-Mobile USA, then wait for their own version of 3G and hopefully it will become a popular band soon. Canada, Mexico and Peru (if I am not mistaken) will be using AWS soon as they are being auctioned off to cell providers.

Would this be applicable to people using ZIPHONE? For example - ones the Dev Team release the code to unlock - I'm guessing other apps like "Zipphone and Pwoned Tool" will facilitate the abilities to unlock 2.0?

The reason I'm asking such a question is because I have Ziphone and I never used Pwoned Tool"...

No, it has not been recompiled to work with 2.0 that I know of, BUT it only means that now that it is jailbroken, we just have to wait for them to release it so they can start working on Summerboard. oh yeah, White iPhone 3G for the win.

Installer 4.0, for the 2.0 FW is on it's way, some of you guys seem to forget most app devs have been working on earlier builds of the 2.0 FW, and that by the time the Dev Team are finished there could be quite a few apps already working.

-JOey

Ziphone and Pwnage are completely different methods to unlocking/jailbreaking. The Ziphone method has been patched by Apple so if he comes out with another program it will be completely different in how it does it's job.

sweet cant wait
i just ordered my prepaid 16gb phone (im from oz)
should be here in about a week
its going to be locked to the carrier i use any way so a unlock doesnt really bother me
i just want to jail brake it and get some of those apps running
like the video recorder and mms
most of the **** in the app store doesnt really appeal to me
great work devs keep it up
im installing leopard onto my vista machine as i type so once its relased i can pwn my phone without having to wait for winpwn
great work devs keep it up

I totally agree, this is getting tiring. The iphone dev team has ruined the whole thing by failing to give any visibility as to when they might release the tool, stop using f***** "soon" for God's sake. It's fine if you say one week or two, but "soon" just puts everybody is waiting mode.

and yeah to whomever moderates this site/ forum, stop locking threads where opinions contrary to the one you hold are being discussed. people are free to ***** about the dev team if they want to, and the dev team is free not to release their tool if they want to. Freedom of speech should not be infringed upon to relieve your freaky control tendencies, get a pet or sthg

Are they ever going to release this?
Everyday you get a video or update and this one says its finished for 1st gen iphones which is the main reason for the jailbreak as the 3g users can use thier phones nearly anywhere and the 1st gen cant as they are locked.
Example: here in Aus the 2nd gen 3G can be used but the 1st gen cant without jailbreak/unlock.

I want the devs to hear this.... RELEASE IT OR SHUT THE **** UP!!!!! Stop making crap videos and shutup with the progress as we dont give a **** we just want it done already!!! You say its finsihed so whats stopping you from releasing it? Testing? Let us test it as you will get people saying it doesnt work anyway and we are the real testers so after wasting a week of testing you will still get a lot of people complaining anyway but the rest of us would now have a hacked iphone which is what we all want.

I dont understand how people can be such a holes these people are wasting their time to bring u a tool that u have been dying for and they are just giving u the progress calm down good things dont come so easy unless ure spoiled *****.idiot

wow. some of you people are rediculous. As others have said, try writing the programs or unlocks, whatever, yourselves. or better yet, try donating to the dev team, huh? go donate $20 for each firmware version you've unlocked BECAUSE of their hard work, which pays little to nothing, THEN b**** all you want. Otherwise, just shut up and wait, cuz that's all you can do! :-D

Are you kidding me? You think they owe you this? I hope it takes even longer to come out because of people like you. They owe you NOTHING, they do this for NO pay, and its very difficult work. Why don't YOU make a tool to do this, since you are real good at complaining im sure you can back what you have to say up?
Stop complaining, if it was released prematurely there would be a sea of broken phones and problems, and you would probably the first one here posting "ZOMG THE DEV TEAM SUX THEY GAVE US THE SOFTWARE TO SOON AND IT BROKEDEDED MAI IFONE." They owe you nothing, they do not need you, you need them, and theres a saying that goes "Don't bite the hand that feeds you."
